I see Jon's point of view. But to call Aspinall a "nobody" is just being disingenuous. Tom is the interim HW Champ. That's not some no name guy. Tom is the most exciting HW we've had in years. He's big, he's strong, he's fast, he can wrestle, he can knock you out with both hands, and he's not even been challenged past the 1st round. That's the challenge. If you're truly the best and you believe you're the best, than you want to fight Tom. Fighting Alex, a guy who can't wrestle on that level, is not what the proverbial GOAT would do. That's just being honest.
@@notallowed337 Exactly..of course he is..and who can begrudge him of that. Look at the bread mcnugget made and never defended a belt once..in any organisation. The man deserves it. Also its more than likely gonna be his last fight.
not really, just basic math This should break UFC 229 PPV record (2.4M buys) and even if it doesn't (highly unlikely) this event will be massive and anything below 2M purchases seems impossible - that's at least 160M income for UFC (80$ rate) and thats PPV alone, excluding all other income streams (ads, sponsorships...etc). I wouldn't be surprised if UFC overall income gets close to 300M - then yeah you remove Aspinals share (10M at most) and other costs (30% at most if management is lousy) If Jones asked for 30, and I were Dana, I'd sign on the fly.

Some of the arguments against Tom are literally insane. People saying that Tom doesn’t deserve to fight Jon because Tom has never been champion. How is Tom supposed to be champion if Jon won’t fight him?
Well to be very honest it’s not like Jon owes aspinall a fight or anyone else. He has maybe 2-3 fights left and he deserves to make 30M a fight with whoever he wants. Besides Jon was looking old af in that fight with stipe so aspinalls going to beat the brakes off Jon for sure 😂 the only people that want to see that are the Tom aspinall fans. They like seeing old guys get beat up, idk I guess people are into that kind of thing
I think aspinall doesn’t do much for Jon’s career, but it would still be a badass fight. If Jon decides not to fight aspinall then the heavy weight division is a shit show
@@frankiesanchez842 Right?! As much as I don't like Jon, I understand his stance (in principal). I get that Tom's star-power has not caught up to his skillset and that Jon could make more money fighting someone like Pereria. Not only that but Jon is at the end of his career and wants to make as much as he can before he retires. I get it. That being said, it's ridiculous for the HW champion to be blatantly denying the IHW champion a shot at the lineal title. Jon recognizes the legitimate threat that Tom represents and I don't think Jon wants to risk his getting flatlined in the last fight of his career especially when he can make more against Pereria who has a much more exploitable weakness.
@@Wide2point1x3bets No, Jon does owe Tom a title shot. Jon is the HW champ which comes with the responsibility of defending that title against the rightful challenger (or in this case, the I-HW champ). Jon has been the younger fighter against all these former champions and now that he's the older fighter he doesn't want to fight. Jon was 8 years younger than DC when they fought. Jon was 5 years younger than Stipe. Tom is 6 years younger than Jon.
@@PinkPenguinKing I think Jon is going to fight aspinall still, he’s probably just trying to get more money out of it.

Tom trains with huge guys and wrestles one after the other purposely starting in bad positions to get out of round after round to exhaustion, some of these guys make Tom look average size, trust me theres nothing wrong with Tom's cardio he puts the hours in day in day out, hes a machine.
Tom can train all he wants. And he could definitely KO Jones but what makes Jones the goat is he’s ability to mix it up. I promise Jones will make he’s “knee stomp” oblique kick a big part of he’s game. Think that won’t make Tom think twice with a prior knee injury?

What if Dana doesn't agree, He is vacating without fighting what would you say, he would like to fight Pereira with no money and he needs money to unify belt
The only reason why Aspinal is interim champion and not undisputed champion... is because Jon sits on the belt and dodges Aspinal. This whole discussion is so insane.. the two belts should be unified.. there is NO OTHER FIGHT TO MAKE!
@@Jurelifenot true, once champ returns, it’s interim vs champ to unify one belt again. Why do you think Tom is still officially ranked interim?

he beat all the roster, while john lost to DC once and won once. DC was liked ok john, since you are so tough lets make the 3th fight at HW...sad enougt
Yes because all those fighters you listed were much older than Jon. DC is 8 years older than him. 27 and 35 and 30 and 38. Machida was 9 years older at 24 and 33, and same with Rampage. Now when Tom is like 6 years younger, suddenly age gaps in fighting matter to him.

Shane Carwin did the same thing tommy did before getting subbed by lesnar in his title fight. Tom is just another Carwin, Jones by TKO easy work. Damn shame fans will always hate Jon
Jon deserves his payday. The UFC’s monopoly on fighter pay has gone unchecked for too long, and stars like Jon have the leverage to challenge that system. Fighters risk their lives every time they step in the cage; it’s only fair they’re compensated accordingly. If $30M is what it takes to get the Aspinall fight, it’s worth it. Let’s see more fighters push back where it hurts: Dana’s wallet.
People saying Jones will win this fight are deluded. Jones has never fought anyone like Tom. His hand picked his opponents and throughout his career nearly always had a size advantage passed his prime and Tom is the most powerful and more importantly, quickest fighter he’s ever fought. He will end Jones if the fight isn’t rigged.
Yeah not so much 🤣🤣 Tom trains for longer than 5 rounds so he’s not gassing out and getting worn down. Jones is at greater risk of being worn down by Tom. Aspinall is too big, too fast and can go the distance. Nothing Jones has ever had to deal with before. Jones is not the favourite here.
@666Buzzsaw Insane ignorance here! Tom's never fought 5 rounds and has the luxury of quick knock outs so for anyone to make a cartooning comment like that is pure biased nonsense
He literally did this with Francis a few years ago, but no UFC journalist dare run with the narrative that Jon prices himself out of the 2 best HW. And 2 HW in a row might leave bc they wanted more money
How is pricing ya sell out when khabib boring self got paid Connor overated self got paid they cut his endorsements he had early career make it make sense Jon created the most bangers yet everyone else got the bag even Francis was offered a bigger bag then what jones making right now according to Dana be Real here
"He's not been tested" No, no one's been ABLE TO put him past the first few rounds That's like saying Floyd doesn't have any face strength cause, "he's never been punched in his face" it's like dude he walked away without any damage, he had been tested, people just weren't ABLE TO damage him
Many people are saying, "Bones is a crusty has-been old guy, who is gatekeeping his weight class," but what people don't get is Bones has never lost. Aspinal has to beat Bones to claim the legit throne. This is unavoidable. Just have the fvck'n fight already, & get it out (ooot if you're from Canada) of the way, dammit!
Why do you think Tom should earn the same money as Jon?If there is 50 mill then make it 10 for Tom and 30 for Jon, then another 10 for the winner.But at the end i dont think that Tom has earned a chance at that much money yet
@DieMutterOberin No I don't believe so. Tom is awesome and most likely the next undisputed champion. I just want to see the fight. The UFC can afford it.
@@tonyford7726 I want to see it too.And if Tom really wins he is the champion and then can ask for more money.I think he hasnt earned a big payday yet.(In comparison to others.I do think ufc pays way to less to the fighters in general.)
Tom not getting passed the first round speaks to how un skilled the heavyweight division is to him . That’s not Tom’s fault he beat everyone like it was nothing . That’s the divisions fault for never being able to test him passed a minute. Which makes him the best person for John to fight. Because Tom is so far above and ahead of his division it’s unbelievable. If jones didn’t exist Tom isn’t being beat for another 4 years till new talent exists. Tom has the stats that are most intriguing not John .
I’d like to see Aspinal vs Gane before he fights Jones. This might gauge a little better on how Aspinal might do against Jones. I think Gane is the next most athletic heavyweight besides Aspinal. Anyone agree?
No more captive of belt for a year, Gane can fight again later but Jones is running away, Gane will win against Jones if he fights back because it's only by submissions he won,
UFC need to pay up.. they need Bones to make the fight, he's at end of his career and earned position to ask for what he wants. Bones doesn't need another fight to solidify his legacy.
Alex would sleep Jon. Dana knows this so he will protect Jones and put him in with Tom. Jones gets to say he "wanted" to fight Alex, and Dana gets a payday with a fight against a guy who will lose to Jon by decision.
Are so many of u just being dizzy..I understand Tom is on a winning fight streak and hes the interm hw holder,but compared to Jon he is a nobody when comes to stats.....its just simple truth..... How many fighters Jon had to fight that had winning streaks and had punching power...Its sad people wannasee Jon lose so bad on every fight he fought,im begining to think its because a man of color...But i wont go there...Either way Jon is the best to do this,put some respect on Jon's legacy.
Yep them people hopi and praying that thier latest white hope beats the black man. No and believe that at any time a person of coler is envolved its boing to always be abot race, Real or imagined .
well well well are we really just ignore the fct john failed roid test 3 or 4 times. once more that was explained as residue from the last time. an event had to be moved because of his fails. or hiding 1 hours under a CAGE. do the math, john is obviously raiding his whole career, find one person who can say otherwise. diaz 5 years for pot?? they caught lance armstrong ONCE, they took everything he ever achieved, ad that is how it is done in serious sports whild the ifc becomes a sewer. It seems the only one here dizzy is you. Take everything in account. Because he is black he is getting this royal treatment and people want to see him loose because the are tired of this cheater, wife beater etc. because he is a terrible human person and in reality a small insecure person
Jon knows Aspinall is a good guy, that's why he was calling him ahole, he wants to believe that Tom's like that for extra motivation. He even said that sometimes its better to fight against someone you dont like.
If Jon doesn’t want to fight Tom due to size, you know he didn’t want to fight Francis who’s even bigger. If he asking for $30 mil for Tom, better believe he was asking for $35 mil for Francis 💯
Jon would destroy Francis. Would do the same thing he did to Gane. Take him down, either ground and pound or submit him. Same reason he wants to fight Alex. Jon out wrestled Cormier. Jon cant do that to Tom, it will be a solid MMA fight. Francis/Alex are way easier fights for Jon
@@doughdough805 Fix: Younger juiced Jon needed 5 rounds to "out wrestle" an older and 20cm shorter Cormier. Lets not forget the NC on their second fight since Jon's blood test had drugs up to the roof. The same jones who almost lost to a smaller belfort, and beated many guys on the end of their career path. Jon cheesed out the game, he never fought bigger, stronger, high caliber guys on their prime. Ran from Francis, running from Tom ( who will truck him), as also running from Poatan. Any of the great champs would have accept those 3 fights in a row at the same year.
The fk are you even saying? He's not afraid of either. He wants to be compensated for fighting a nobody who beat cans. He has nothing to gain winning Aspinal.
Then why didn't he want more compensation fighting Stipe, or for the trilogy fight against Cormier, or a bunch of other fights. Jones is asking for $30 million to fight a nobody. Sounds like he's scared of Aspinall and scared of losing his GOAT status.
Your judgement is clouded by hate or you just cant stand the fact that Jones is black and he is GOAT. if he was white maybe he would appeal better to you.

Jon talks about legacy and titles... whilst his reluctance to fight Tom robs Tom of the chance to win the title and have a legacy. Tom can't float between weight classes and pick his fights like Jon.
@ How’s he holding up the division, he was always scheduled to fight Stipe, way before Aspinal was even no 1 contender. He got injured and to keep the division going they let Tom fight for the interim belt and now the Stipe fight is over they’re trying to negotiate the fight between him and Tom. So enlighten me, how is he holding up the division?

The guys being humble and hopefully grateful for this opportunity I mean the amount of money and the fame he will have if he wins is gonna be huge.
Jon is the most selfish fighter in UFC history. Holding up an entire division and avoiding the INTERIM CHAMPION while playing Undisputed Champion and talking about legacy. Is it about LEGACY or the UFC HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP?? If it's legacy give Tom his belt and get out of his way.

Aspinall trains for 5 rounds, in a recent Q&A he explains every fight camp he prepares as if it was a championship bout everytime, prepared to take it to the ugliest last seconds of any round but his opponents always can’t handle the pressure of Tom from the jump! He’s fine and will be fine if they go to round 2. Don’t think this man only has a one round battle button and it switches off 😂
Despite all the opportunities he was given as a new fighter back when he came into the UFC, he denies others the same opportunity. If he fights Aspinal, he may very well win, but he knows he may very well lose as well, and that's why he won't fight him. His legacy already exists and will live on. This is too much like boxing with boxers dodging other fighters to inflate their winning record. No disrespect to Stipe, but c'mon man. If he wants to secure his legacy, then fight Aspinal, and so long as they make it out of the first round then Aspinal will likely lose. Then go fight Perriera for a superfight. All Jon Jones has to do is survive the first round and force Aspinal to wrestle the entire first round, then he'll likely submit him in the 2nd or 3rd round. Can you imagine how big a fight would be if Jon Jones were to fight Aspinal, and after than win fight Perriera for the heavyweight belt? That would be the biggest fight in UFC history right there!
Jon is either ducking Tom or playing the money game, he dodged Francis when he came up to HW and now he's calling out a LHW who's fought his career at MW. Jon came up to be the greatest HW of all time so why chase fights outside your division? Beating Tom would be worth way more to Jon's legacy than just dragging down and sitting on Alex for 25 mins

Jon deserves his payday. The UFC’s monopoly on fighter pay has gone unchecked for too long, and stars like Jon have the leverage to challenge that system. Fighters risk their lives every time they step in the cage; it’s only fair they’re compensated accordingly. If $30M is what it takes to get the Aspinall fight, it’s worth it. Let’s see more fighters push back where it hurts: Dana’s wallet.
Hey! You stop being rational around these comment sections, sir! You can get verbally hurt around here.
They said the same for Cyril gane , as he is so fast for a heavy weight, Jones is a big piece of cake to take
People saying Jones will win this fight are deluded. Jones has never fought anyone like Tom. His hand picked his opponents and throughout his career nearly always had a size advantage passed his prime and Tom is the most powerful and more importantly, quickest fighter he’s ever fought. He will end Jones if the fight isn’t rigged.

That's not how this work boy
Tom not getting passed the first round speaks to how un skilled the heavyweight division is to him . That’s not Tom’s fault he beat everyone like it was nothing . That’s the divisions fault for never being able to test him passed a minute. Which makes him the best person for John to fight. Because Tom is so far above and ahead of his division it’s unbelievable. If jones didn’t exist Tom isn’t being beat for another 4 years till new talent exists. Tom has the stats that are most intriguing not John .
Jon used to play with his food and push fights 5 rounds. Jon today is taking everyone out. Tom is going to be completely outclassed.
Jones is afraid ro get beat up by a white guy.
Period.
How am I only 1.5 minutes into this video and already obsessed over the possibility of this fight happening?
I’d like to see Aspinal vs Gane before he fights Jones. This might gauge a little better on how Aspinal might do against Jones. I think Gane is the next most athletic heavyweight besides Aspinal. Anyone agree?
No more captive of belt for a year, Gane can fight again later but Jones is running away, Gane will win against Jones if he fights back because it's only by submissions he won,
Right

UFC need to pay up.. they need Bones to make the fight, he's at end of his career and earned position to ask for what he wants. Bones doesn't need another fight to solidify his legacy.
Alex would sleep Jon. Dana knows this so he will protect Jones and put him in with Tom. Jones gets to say he "wanted" to fight Alex, and Dana gets a payday with a fight against a guy who will lose to Jon by decision.
Are so many of u just being dizzy..I understand Tom is on a winning fight streak and hes the interm hw holder,but compared to Jon he is a nobody when comes to stats.....its just simple truth.....

Take everything in account.
Because he is black he is getting this royal treatment and people want to see him loose because the are tired of this cheater, wife beater etc.
because he is a terrible human person and in reality a small insecure person
Jon knows Aspinall is a good guy, that's why he was calling him ahole, he wants to believe that Tom's like that for extra motivation. He even said that sometimes its better to fight against someone you dont like.
If Jon doesn’t want to fight Tom due to size, you know he didn’t want to fight Francis who’s even bigger. If he asking for $30 mil for Tom, better believe he was asking for $35 mil for Francis 💯
That’s a good number
Jon would destroy Francis. Would do the same thing he did to Gane. Take him down, either ground and pound or submit him. Same reason he wants to fight Alex. Jon out wrestled Cormier. Jon cant do that to Tom, it will be a solid MMA fight. Francis/Alex are way easier fights for Jon
@@doughdough805 Fix: Younger juiced Jon needed 5 rounds to "out wrestle" an older and 20cm shorter Cormier. Lets not forget the NC on their second fight since Jon's blood test had drugs up to the roof.
The same jones who almost lost to a smaller belfort, and beated many guys on the end of their career path.
Jon cheesed out the game, he never fought bigger, stronger, high caliber guys on their prime. Ran from Francis, running from Tom ( who will truck him), as also running from Poatan. Any of the great champs would have accept those 3 fights in a row at the same year.
The fk are you even saying? He's not afraid of either. He wants to be compensated for fighting a nobody who beat cans. He has nothing to gain winning Aspinal.
Then why didn't he want more compensation fighting Stipe, or for the trilogy fight against Cormier, or a bunch of other fights.
Jones is asking for $30 million to fight a nobody. Sounds like he's scared of Aspinall and scared of losing his GOAT status.
Matter of fact $30 million is an okay negotiation from Jon's side if compared to Conor who's being paid 250 million for a fight against Logan.

JOE ROGAN BONES JONES DESERVES 50 MILLION THAT'S ALL SHE WROTE .
You don't know how to pronounce Stipe Miocic but you cover mma?
UFC lucky JJ didn't want $300 million! lol
Sport is not that big it's like canelo asking for 100 million gor benavidez boxing is bigger its highly unlikely but still doable that's what his numbe ris like realistically
He should ask for 30 to 40
Aspinall isn’t that good…
If Jon thought that he’d settle for a payday similar to what he accepted for the Gane and Stipe fight.
Holds more records than anyone else in the ufc
@@pedrohippocaus8488 it literally does nothing for him jons been undefeated since 2008 that’s 16 going on 17 years, it’s mainly Yt folks giving aspinall the gawk 9000 because he beat some sloppy heavy weights. Jons not sloppy & he’s not losing to a Brit who loses almost all his fights going past round 1 . He’s not knocking jones nor submitting. Heavy weights literally have the sloppiest talent. Idk what drugs folks are taking thinking this is even a good matchup.
@@NoThanks-j9p these aspinwall folks is jokes
@@tahjsr3072You’re ignorant to the fact of what the job of the belt holder is or why they have rankings.It is the job of the champion to fight the best in that division.That’s Tom.He’s beat the people he’s needed to beat to become the #1challenger.The reason Jon needs to fight him is because one of the definitions of a paper champion is a champion that will not fight the #1 challenger in that division.If Jon doesn’t fight Tom his legacy as heavyweight champion will be that of a paper one.That’s just a fact,no color involved.
$30mil to Jones & $250k to Aspinal
If Jones wants to fight Alex, he should but give up the HW strap first
Aspinall trains for 5 rounds, in a recent Q&A he explains every fight camp he prepares as if it was a championship bout everytime, prepared to take it to the ugliest last seconds of any round but his opponents always can’t handle the pressure of Tom from the jump! He’s fine and will be fine if they go to round 2. Don’t think this man only has a one round battle button and it switches off 😂
The only way fighting pereira will effect his legacy is everyone will say he was too scared to fight Aspinall
That Jon Jones vs Aspinall fight is going to go just like Pereira vs Rountree fight
Despite all the opportunities he was given as a new fighter back when he came into the UFC, he denies others the same opportunity. If he fights Aspinal, he may very well win, but he knows he may very well lose as well, and that's why he won't fight him. His legacy already exists and will live on. This is too much like boxing with boxers dodging other fighters to inflate their winning record. No disrespect to Stipe, but c'mon man. If he wants to secure his legacy, then fight Aspinal, and so long as they make it out of the first round then Aspinal will likely lose. Then go fight Perriera for a superfight. All Jon Jones has to do is survive the first round and force Aspinal to wrestle the entire first round, then he'll likely submit him in the 2nd or 3rd round. Can you imagine how big a fight would be if Jon Jones were to fight Aspinal, and after than win fight Perriera for the heavyweight belt? That would be the biggest fight in UFC history right there!
That title belt tattoo on the bicep is sick, surprised havent seen that before
Jon is either ducking Tom or playing the money game, he dodged Francis when he came up to HW and now he's calling out a LHW who's fought his career at MW. Jon came up to be the greatest HW of all time so why chase fights outside your division? Beating Tom would be worth way more to Jon's legacy than just dragging down and sitting on Alex for 25 mins
